Host
Eastern New York Commercial HorticultureTour research plots examining various tillage and no-till strategies supplemented by tarp usage for weed control and nitrogen retention. Early plots with rye were planted to cabbage, and later plots with rye and vetch were planted to winter squash. You will also see how tarps are being used on the small-scale (1 acre) garden level to prepare multiple beds for weed-free direct seeding of crops, and see a field being prepared for vegetable crops with no-till drilled cover crop successions.
Please pre-register so we can get a sense of the number of attendees. The event is free through generous support of the NY Farm Viability Institute.
